Well, it occurred today again :)
http://www.python.org/dev/buildbot/all/builders/x86%20Tiger%203.x/builds/1884/steps/test/logs/stdio

test test_cmd_line failed -- Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/Users/db3l/buildarea/3.x.bolen-tiger/build/Lib/test/test_cmd_line.py", line 95, in test_run_code

    self.stdin = io.open(p2cwrite, 'wb', bufsize)
OSError: [Errno 9] Bad file descriptor


But I would suggest an OS X bug instead. My random guess is that the child process exits very quickly (as you see, it runs "python -c" which is an immediate error), therefore the other end of the pipe gets closed and OS X then returns EBADF when we try to do something with our end of the pipe.
